I have a spare 3070 GPU, as well as 16GB of Memory and my friend has a spare PSU, this part list has everything else I would need+everything I already have. Is there anything I should tweak or modify or will this build work, I plan to use it as a headless server.

Thanks for the feedback!

Update:

Use case, I currently run a docker swarm cluster with two older Optiplexes and a raspberry Pi, like I said before, I have a spare PSU, GPU and Memory and would rather put it to work then sell it. I would like to add this new PC to my cluster and utilize it for my home services and also learning. The only items I would really be buying is the case, cpu and board. I would like to run some local AI models on this PC as well.

    Great build for a gaming PC. For a server it looks odd. Usually when building a server, your main concern is reliability. Everything goes in pairs. Two CPUs, Two PSUs… It gets tedious fast. Often weaker but much more energy efficient parts are prefered, since unused CPU and RAM is considered wasted.

    It would be much more helpful if you have a usecase you’re building it for (since now I really can’t comment too much on the build). If your primary concern is to try to have a home server, I’d say go for it. You can always upgrade/downgrade down the line.

      There’s always the add more of everything so something could fail without impacting the stability aspect, and that’s great for a corporation needing the redundancy; but it’s probably prudent to not forget there’s also the “I’m interested in learning” aspect, where people running a home server to play with software side of things.

      You’re spot on in that we’d need to know what it is that OP would like to do with the system, but I’m getting the feeling that stability isn’t that high of a concern just yet.
